Filter Item Toolbar

The filter item toolbar is the collection of buttons that displays when you hover over a filter item within the list of filter items. It includes the following buttons:

Operator

This is the default method for combining column filters. The OR operator means that the criteria that is specified in at least one of the column filters must be met.
